Absolutely love this place best Greek food I ve ever had stopped by on Monday for take out the food was fresh and heated up well we got moussaka and lamb kabob it was absolutely amazing I recommend this place five stars ,very clean no contact pickup ,
This is an old standby of great Greek cooking. Generous portions of well prepared food. And some of the tastiest bread! And the same menue can be had in the comfortable Lounge next door.
Convivial atmosphere with warm, attentive service. The food is solidly good but, having been to Greece many times, I have had better.
The Parthenon is the best Greek Bistro in town! What a great Neighborhood Restaurant, super friendly staff and ownership, and above all excellent Greek food! The kind my grandmother used to make! I'd recommend this place to anyone interested in the Greek experience.
This is a long standing Greek restaurant. The food quality is good and the staff are friendly and helpful. The adjoining bar is a popular spot. In warm weather the patio is a great spot to dine. Lonegivity isn't always a sign of quality but in this case it is.
*2020 update. It had been too long s...
Food was delicious, the waiters were great and the overall atmosphere was very friendly. Perfect for a nice evening out.
Solid food, good atmosphere. The lounge area was cool as well, with a great bartender.
Food was great. I had the mousaka and my word the gyro
Great restaurant for Greek food. It's menu includes many entrees that aren't standard Greek fare. I must try their seafood!
Excellent Greek food! Surprisingly delicious fries with sandwiches. Their salads are good, though do not include dressing or sauce. They have a decent low-key bar scene as well in the evenings.
PARTENON IS THE CLOSEST COOKING OF YOUR HOME MEAL. MY WHOLE FAMILY AND FRIENDS AGREES WITH ME.
The food at the Parthenon Restaurant is always top quality. This is the perfect place to get a delicious meal. There is a big selection of food, beer, wine, and liquors.
Delightful food, excellent service, truly lovely experience
Food was solidly good but waiter was not very. Decor is dated but I don't mind because it looks like all the Greek restaurants I knew in the Philly-area growing up in the 90s. I was able to pretend I was 25 years younger & not stuck in bucolic Chevy Chase! :-) Maybe my waiter was daydreaming too? It...
IT'S A GOOD GREEK RESTAURANT WITH SELECTION OF TASTY GOOD FOOD, ESPECIALLY THEIR SALAD AND THE SEA FOOD PLATTERS. THEIR PRICES ARE REASONABLE AND WELL KEPT RESTAURANT WITH GOOD AND FRIENDLY WAITERS.
My dining companions had the lamb special. I had the crab stuffed flounder. All of us raved about how great the food was. Also had the lemon chicken soup and hummus for appetizers. Delicious!!
I joined a group of ladies for dinner at The Parthenon a week or so ago. I arrived later than the others & we were in a time crunch already but the waiter said, "Hey, no worries, I'll get you caught up with the rest." He was beyond nice. All of our meals were delicious. The service was exemplary. I'...
Excellent food, especially the lamb-Not greasy! I would go again.
Disgusting, overpriced, overly greasy, less than half food and beverage portions and horrible waiters. Interior decor looks like a funeral home. Never going back.
A wonderful neighborhood restaurant. Great food, wonderful service, terrific ambiance. Outdoor dining a treat. One of the best restaurants in DC. Each dish a gem.
I had the chicken gyro sandwich and a glass of the house red wine. I enjoyed the sandwich and liked our waiter. The waiter was very attentive and the food came out in a good time. I sat outside and loved the outdoor seating. The meat quality for the gyro was very good. Next time I come I'll have to ...
It's a little worn around the edges but maintains it's comfortably elegance as a welcoming neighborhood restaurant. The kind of place to meet some friends for a leasurely evening. The traditional foods are simple, lightly seasoned and clearly Greek. I've always thoroughly enjoyed everything I've had...
Had a fantastic experience in here with my son. The food arrives fast and the service is just great. Prices are affordable.
Great Selection of wonderful Greek good .Wonderful service .
The food is consistent quality through the years. Service needs more work. I recognize Saturday nights are busy. However, waiters are the "face" of any restaurant. They should at least introduce themselves and offer suggestions. Our waiter was expedient but he was neither informative or personable. ...
Gail is amazing! Great energy, knows her regulars and loves her career! Awesome spot; great food, drinks, and times!
I was skeptical at first because of the dated exterior & need for a fresh coat of paint inside, but decided to trust my fellow Google reviewers. The food was very fresh, didn't taste microwaved, and was very similar to the Greek food I grew up with (I am first gen raised by Greek immigrants). Even t...
Food good. Friendly wait staff. Comfortable ambience.
We've lived in the neighborhood for some time and walk by daily. We came in one night late and they still allowed us to sit outside and enjoy the great food. We had the Greek salad, filet mignon, chicken ,and gyros. Everyone enjoyed our food and the waiter was really cool..
A welcoming neighborhood restaurant. The best tzatziki and galaktoboureko in town.
We love the Lounge! We frequent the Parthenon each time we visit DC! Great food and cocktails!
So delicious! A neighborhood gem. Every meal is fresh and scrumptious. I love eating here.
This restaurant is 10 star of the 5 star of Greek food in Washington Dc. If you want authentic Greek and the best of the best- No where else but Parthenon has it! From.Yeeros/Gyros to Galactobouriko go no where else even if traffic is hectic you won't regret it. Parthenon is truly authentic and won'...
Fantastic gyros and delicious, tender, perfectly cooked lamb! Fairly inexpensive unless you're going for the most expensive items like lamb chops. Very interesting Greek coffee. Overall great Greek place with lots of choices.
2 stars strictly based on the flounder dish. Fishy, mushy and old, did Not eat. The fish soup on the other hand was not too bad. Not great either, somewhere in between. Other menu items may be good though. Definitely skip the fish. Kinda disappointed given the parking isn't free.
Great restaurant. Delicious food and very well served dishes. Take the opportunity to talk to Pete the owner. Very nice. I recommend.
Delicious food, wonderful staff and very pleasant atmosphere. It's elegant, yet totally fine for kids as well.
Good service, excelent flavor for the dishes that I chose.
Food is ok but can do much better with the quality and hospitality
This is my go to place for nurturing food - great service. YUMMY
Great menu selection and outdoor terrace seating atmosphere in times of COVID, well managed
Fantastic place!! Amazing food and great service! Everyone was so nice and attentive. They paid attention to details and made our kids feel welcome. Prices are very reasonable. If you are in the area, give it a try. You will not regret it
The 4 stars is more for the atmosphere and the service, rather than the food. This is a place that you go to if you are craving Greek food, but you may not be too happy with the results. I may recommend the outside location for dates, during the summer months, but thats about it.
I had an excelle...
Service was terrible food was cold did not save you with a smile I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone
This establishment is a staple of the neighborhood. The food here is great, but you really go here to meet your neighbors.
Great food and superb service in a sublime environment
It was very good. Had dinner and a Margarita. Very good.
A good, dependable neighborhood spot that satisfies our craving for Greek food. We love sitting out front, and the staff never fails to make us feel welcome. Tonight we had flaming saganaki, gyro salad, chicken souvlaki, and galaktabouriko and Greek coffee to finish it off. Always fun.
Hands down, some of the best Greek food I've had. The staff is always friendly, food is unbelievable. Been for lunch and dinner, large groups are welcomed. The patio is nice, bar adjacent to the restaurant. Overall I highly recommend it. Parking on street, Uber is best.
Great food, great service. This has been a special event location for birthdays, anniversaries etc for my family going on 20yrs. The dishes are all amazing but my personal favorite is the trout stuffed with crabmeat, amazing every time. There is outdoor seating and a bar. The bar is cut off from the...
Very good food and even better ambiance. Outdoor seating improves the ambiance even more. Pictures on the menu would help an uninitiate like myself.
The good: tasteful food, big menu, excelente service, COVID-19 regulations in place. The bad: nothing bad! It is a wonderful place with delicious menu! I'll be back!
This place is worth a try. They have big portions for convenient rates. Constantly well kept and with great vibes. Will visit here again.
Really good! Very much comfort food with a bit of flare. We will be back!
Generous sized portions and a very delightful atmosphere awaits you. We visit this restaurant quite often because it is a very good Greek restaurant in the DC area. The service is always quite adequate.
Great food, interior design is getting a bit old, floors are old and sticky for ex. Great service.
Absolutely had a wonderful time today... the drinks were awesome, appetizers on point and the entrees, yummy... Thxs Jeff for your guidance thru the menu...
Great food! The lamb is divine! Friendly staff! the costumers are usually the neighbors...It is like home!
We were looking for something local in or near Chevy Chase with good quality food and outdoor seating. My family is from Illinois, and we love enjoying Greek food in authentic Greek family restaurants in the Greektown neighborhood in Chicago. Parthenon was every bit as good as the best I've had any...
I couldn't decide what I wanted so I ordered a combination platter. Everything was fantastic, even the bread served with olive oil before the meal.
Nice setting, the food is very good and okay for large parties.
One of my favorite Greek restaurants to go to in DC
The best stuffed grape leaves around! Love the outdoor dining area! They are also dog-friendly.
Over priced but the Drinks were good and the service was great
